Xylaria hypoxylon is a species of bioluminescent fungus in the family Xylariaceae.[NB 1] It is known by a variety of common names, such as the candlestick fungus, the candlesnuff fungus, carbon antlers,[2] or the stag's horn fungus. (Wikipedia) (а фото моє)

Xylaria hypoxylon (du préfixe grec hypo- sous, presque et de xýlon bois : presque boisé, en raison de sa consistance.
